How can this go unnoticed

Massing humanity
Pockmarks the beach,
A warm wind strafes
The arc-shaped bay,
Linear stories being told
In the reviving water, on towels
As bodies are being burned,
A friendship being dissolved,
					Lovers learning to lie,

A child, a dog, a grandparent
Go for a swim, nobody sees
How close they are, the
Immensity of their sustaining love,
The triangulation of their bond
Placed perfectly, geometrically,
Unbridle the joy and let it sweep around them,
How can this go unnoticed alongside
The tension on the road raging by,
What a beautiful event on a
Summer Sunday
			Unlike any other.
